How the Journey Works

Seeing a high-intensity act like The Prodigy at 3Arena is a night you’ll never forget — and Irish Concert Travel ensures that getting there is just as smooth as the beats you came for. Our concert transport is designed with fans in mind: safe and stress-free. Whether you’re travelling from the South, the Midlands, or the West, our bus to The Prodigy at 3Arena is your ultimate ride to rave central.

Our coaches operate same-day return routes from multiple regional locations. Every schedule is built around the concert start and end time, ensuring you’re dropped off right at the venue with time to spare, and collected after the final beat drops. No navigating city streets, no darting for the last train — just plug in, relax, and get into gig mode early.

On arrival in Dublin’s North Docklands, your coach pulls up within short walking distance to 3Arena’s main entrance. You’ll have ample time to grab drinks, hit the merch stand, and catch up with your crew before the venue lights go down and the lasers fire up.

After the concert, our return service leaves approximately 30 minutes after the show ends, giving you plenty of time to regroup and find your seat without rushing so you can head home safely and hassle-free — still buzzing from one of the most powerful live shows of 2026.

About The Prodigy

The Prodigy are one of the most revolutionary electronic acts of all time. Formed in Essex, England, in 1990 by producer and keyboardist Liam Howlett, the group pioneered the fusion of rave, breakbeat, punk, and industrial sounds into what became known as “big beat.” Their music redefined what electronic music could be — loud, rebellious, and full of attitude. Over the past three decades, The Prodigy have become synonymous with high-octane live performances and genre-defying records that shook the global underground and stormed the mainstream.

The classic lineup featured Howlett alongside iconic frontman Keith Flint — whose punk vocals and wild stage presence became legendary — and dancer/vocalist Maxim. Tracks like “Firestarter,” “Breathe,” and “Smack My Bitch Up” propelled the band into global superstardom during the ’90s, with their 1997 album The Fat of the Land debuting at No. 1 in multiple countries and selling over 10 million copies worldwide.

Even after the tragic loss of Keith Flint in 2019, The Prodigy have remained committed to keeping the spirit alive. In 2022, they returned to the stage with a powerful tribute tour that reaffirmed their status as one of the UK’s most vital live acts. Their live shows are explosive — packed with pulsating strobe lights, thunderous basslines, and raw energy that channels rave and rebellion in equal measure.

Recent years have seen The Prodigy tease new music while continuing to headline major festivals and arenas. Their sound has evolved but never softened — staying true to their roots in warehouse culture while constantly pushing boundaries. From underground anthems to mainstream mayhem, The Prodigy continue to influence artists across genres, from drum & bass and dubstep to hip-hop and rock.

Prodigy Trivia:

• “Firestarter” was the first UK No. 1 single to feature aggressive breakbeat rave in the mainstream charts.
• The Prodigy were the first dance act to headline Reading Festival in 2002.
• Keith Flint once owned a motorcycle racing team and ran a local pub in Essex.
• The group’s name comes from the Moog Prodigy synth — Liam Howlett’s first music gear.
• Despite controversy, “Smack My Bitch Up” was voted by Mixmag as the third greatest dance track of all time.
